Shareholder Activism

Understand your shareholders before the stakes rise.

An activist approach or contested election can change the demands on a board and management team quickly. We help companies prepare for that pressure, understand the shareholder landscape and execute an informed engagement and solicitation strategy.

Preparedness starts with the shareholder base.

We bring a voting and ownership perspective to preparedness and active situations, working alongside counsel and other advisors to identify where support stands, where it may shift and how outreach should respond.
